Before the movie begins, join us for Trunk or Treating! Vehicles are encouraged to decorate their trunk, tailgate or hatchback and bring candy to hand out to trick-or-treaters. Kids can dress up in their Halloween costumes and make their way from trunk to trunk through the designated parking area to collect treats.

We’ll also be awarding prizes for the BEST COSTUMES and BEST DECORATED TRUNK so get creative!
